Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

Each country has different responses to Li Shaoyi's arrival.

The Junkers were naturally welcoming. Li Shaoyi's performance on the Xiongnu steppes showed them the capabilities of their Far Eastern allies. The most important thing was that the Junker navy was relatively weak. If Li Shaoyi could develop a navy, then Japan would basically not have to be considered. Originally, Japan was considered because of their navy and the possibility of causing trouble for the Russians in the Far East.

Now that the Japanese have almost allied with the Russians, what else is there to say?

Li Shaoyi's weakness is the navy, but his navy has just come out, less than half a month ago, and now it already has two 6,000-ton cruisers and several destroyers. Basically, it has a framework. It is impossible to compete for hegemony at sea, but it has already made its presence felt.

What's more, they are developing very fast. In just a few days, they have reached such a scale. If they are given some time, they will definitely be as outstanding as the army in the future.

As for the Windsor Empire, they were also wary of Li Shaoyi's expansion. However, this time regarding the order of train locomotives, Wu Zhenkui directly placed an order of five million oceans. Faced with such a huge order, the Windsor Empire remained silent for the time being.

What's more, they did not want to see the Rakshasa become stronger, especially its growing influence on the European continent, which was not in line with the international interests of the Windsor Empire. Therefore, they chose to remain neutral on the matter of Li Shaoyi's southward march to Pujiang.

The Americans have never had the greatest power in Pujiang. They adhere to the principle of sharing benefits equally. If all countries can achieve a balance, this should be what the Americans want to see most. By relying on their strong economic strength, they can plunder greater benefits on the basis of a balance among countries.

Originally, as a Dragon citizen, Li Shaoyi was the weakest. The addition of naval warships could weaken the power of European colonists, so in this regard his interests were consistent with those of the Stars and Stripes.

The most unhappy were the Japanese. They had protested several times and marched on the streets of the French Concession, saying that the arrival of Li Shaoyi's fleet would likely cause instability in the entire Pujiang River and even lead to war.

Of course, these people only dared to march in the French Concession. If they went to other areas, they might be beaten by the military and police, including the area around the Hongkou Police Station, which was not safe either. So there were only a few roads to go back and forth. By the time the march reached the second round, the merchants were no longer willing to go.

If you were to just pass through here once, we wouldn't interfere with your free march. But the problem is, if you keep going in circles, how can we do business? Before the authorities could intervene, the marchers had already clashed with local merchants.

There were many Japanese Marines in the parade, but everyone who owned shops in the French Concession, whether Chinese or foreigners, had an armed guard. The two sides fought fiercely on the streets of the French Concession, and dozens of people were sent to the hospital.

"The Merchant Guard's combat effectiveness has improved a bit, and Mr. Du deserves credit for this."

Standing on a high building, Wu Zhenkui said with a smile that it was not convenient for his military personnel to intervene in such matters, so he could only ask the Pujiang Green Gang to step in. Mr. Du sent more than 200 people, all armed with short sticks, to teach the Japanese parade a lesson.

"Everyone has to contribute to the fleet's journey south. Although I'm a quack, I'm not willing to lag behind in this regard. This is our Green Gang's contribution."

Mr. Du waved his hand, and a big man behind him took out a central bank draft for four million dollars.

"How can this be so embarrassing? I put in so much effort and still ask you to pay for it!"

Although Wu Zhenkui said this, his hands were not idle. After the fleet arrived in Pujiang, it would be best to solve the military expenses on the spot. This was also what Li Shaoyi told him. This thing is not like the army. Going out for training every day, and a trip out would burn up hundreds of thousands of oceans of oil.

"After the fleet arrived in Pujiang, foreigners had to think more carefully about what they said when negotiating with us. Our say has also increased significantly, and this is all as it should be."

Mr. Du patted Wu Zhenkui on the shoulder. Wu Zhenkui was afraid of getting off the donkey, so he put the bill of exchange in his pocket.

People from all walks of life in Pujiang have been sending money these days, precisely because of the warships stationed there. In Pujiang, how do foreigners threaten us? Most of the time, it's their navy. If you don't obey, they'll immediately strip the gun covers off the warships, point the muzzles in your direction, and compromise will be forced.

We have been oppressed like this for decades, but the situation is different now. After Li Shaoyi's warships arrive, if the foreigners still dare to threaten us with their cannons, Li Shaoyi will also raise his cannons because we have paid money. At that time, it will depend on whether the foreigners have the guts to do so.

"Speaking of these things, our Marshal really does have something to ask of you. When the warship docked at Pujiang, we wouldn't be afraid of a head-on attack, but we are afraid of a ruthless attack. You know that regular troops always have some loopholes in this area of ​​defense..."

Wu Zhenkui conveyed Li Shaoyi's meaning. Pujiang is a place with all kinds of capable people. Although the Central Navy has said that there is no problem with the dock where our fleet is docked, Li Shaoyi still dared not believe it. With Mr. Du's words, the various gangsters in Pujiang might not dare to take this job. In this land, there are who knows how many people are waiting to see the joke. Mr. Du's brand is still useful.

"Please rest assured, Director Wu. If we really fight the foreign devils, I will just send them money and food. But if they are secretly colluding, I will eliminate it for Chief Li."

For people like Mr. Du, who are from the underworld, being able to do something for Li Shaoyi is something they would love to have. But they are afraid that if Li Shaoyi gets into trouble, they won't be able to ask for help from him. That really makes them worried.

Benefits are mutually exchanged. If I help you with something today and I have difficulties tomorrow, can you just sit back and do nothing? This is morally unacceptable.

After completing this last step, Wu Zhenkui knew that most things had been arranged, and all that remained was for our fleet to enter Pujiang.

"Reporting to the Director, the French Concession Police have arrested several people in charge of the celebration team. They are all currently in the French Concession General Police Station..."

The fleet hasn't arrived yet, someone is really looking for trouble...
